Lyrics

kyou mo ikite shimatta na kore de nannen
iki wo haku you ni tsuita uso wa nanzen
haitsukubatte kenmohororo ni natte
me ga mawaru wa

sono kakato suritsubushita kutsu de doko iku no
sagesunda sono me wo shimatte okure yo
shien wo kuyuraseru shimitsuita heya de hitori
sokujitsu hi wa setsunaku anata ni yorisoi

ima sugu ni iitai
itai uwatsuita hanagokoro
ai aitai kotoba ga
yakimashishita kioku wo tadori

sabishii hoshi wo matte
aisaretai wo shitte shimatta shounen
yozora wo miageta nara ima odotte
sayonara wo utatte koinegau made

dare ni mo ienai himitsu ga atte
egao no ura ni wa kage ga atte
shiranai jibun wo shitte hoshiin janakute
sou janakute

ano toki dokidoki suru mune no takanari wa
itetsuku kokoro wo tokashite shimaetara
kono te wo surinukeru hidamari no naka de hitori
sokujitsu hi wa setsunaku anata ni yorisoi

massugu ni chikai
itai uwatsuita mizugokoro
ai saita hanabira
chiri yuku saigo made wo boku ni

sabishii hoshi wo matte
aisaretai wo shitte shimatta shounen
yozora wo miageta nara ima odotte
sayonara wo utatte koinegau made

sabishii hoshi wo matte

aisareta yo shounen

yoru wa honoka ni natte

sabishii hoshi wo matte
aisaretai wo shitte shimatta shounen
yozora wo miageta nara ima odotte
sayonara wo utatte koinegau made

kyou mo ikite shimatta na kore de nannen
tada nandaka kibun wa ii mitai da.

English Translation

I’ve lived another day again, how many years does this make
The lies I’ve told that come as easy as breathing are in the thousands
Grovelling, becoming jaded
My eyes spin

Where are you going in those worn and tattered shoes
Close that hateful eye for me
Alone in this room stained by puffs of cigarette smoke
the day fades painfully, I snuggle close to you

I want to say it now
It hurts – a fickle, capricious heart
Sorrow – the words I want to be met with
They all lead to reprinted memories

Waiting on a lonely star
Oh boy, who has realised he wants to be loved,
If you’re looking to the night sky – dance
And sing the joys of goodbye until you yearn

I’ve got this secret I can’t tell anybody
Behind my smile is shadow
It’s not that I want to discover an unknown side of me
It’s not like that

The racing heartbeat thumping in my chest from back then
If it could melt this frozen heart
Alone in the sunlight that slips through these hands
This faint day painfully snuggles close to you

Swearing on it straight
It hurts – fickle mutual favours
Love – bloomed flower petals
These scattering final moments fall unto me

Waiting on a lonely star
Oh boy, who has realised he wants to be loved,
If you’re looking to the night sky – dance
And sing the joys of goodbye until you yearn

Waiting on a lonely star

Want to be loved, boy

The night becomes faint

Waiting on a lonely star
Oh boy, who has realised he wants to be loved,
If you’re looking to the night sky – dance
And sing the joys of goodbye until you yearn

I’ve lived another day again, how many years does this make
Just, it seems I’m in a good mood somehow
